This is perhaps because most people go back after their December holidays, schools reopen and the beginning of the year is quite hectic for most companies. Hence, not many people travel to Paris in January, resulting in a sober undertone throughout the city.<\/li>\n<li><b>Best of both worlds<\/b> &#8211;  Since the winters haven\u2019t completely gone, you can still ice skate in the open. At the same time, you can take a day trip from Paris, simply because you won\u2019t freeze by stepping out but will have the company of a nice chill breeze.<\/li>\n<li><b>Cafe weather<\/b> &#8211;  There\u2019s no better time to enjoy the warmth and charm of Paris\u2019s snug cafes than in January. Make sure you stock up on books to keep you company while chugging mugs of hot chocolate. If you\u2019re into cafe hopping, spend a day at the  Latin Quarter or in Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s.<\/li>\n<li><b>Great flight deals<\/b> &#8211;  As always, off season flight tickets are quite cheap and if you book well in advance, you can get a great deal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Paris in January: Weather<\/h2>\n<p> Paris in January is a clean blend of cold and wet, so make sure to pack everything you need to keep yourself warm, high and dry. With highs of  7\u00b0C and lows of 3\u00b0 C, expect about 3 hours of sunshine daily. 17 days of icy rain throughout the month is also typical of Paris in January.<\/p>\n<h2>Paris in January: Things to do<\/h2>\n<p>1<\/p>\n<h2>The Eiffel Tower<\/h2>\n<p style=\"display:block;\">\n<p><span> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-imgix.headout.com\/tour\/18323\/TOUR-IMAGE\/38ec6df0-870b-4e1e-823b-a075ccf64c67-9989-paris-skip-the-line-eiffel-tower-tour-with-access-to-the-2nd-floor-03.jpg?auto=compress&amp;fm=pjpg&amp;w=600&amp;h=300&amp;crop=faces&amp;fit=min\" alt=\"paris in january - eiffel tower\" width=\"900\" height=\"232\" style=\"width: 800px; height: 300px;\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"2096676343\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Be it January or July, no trip to Paris is complete without visiting the Eiffel Tower.

The destination is a tidal island and mainland commune in the Normandy region of France, where the iconic abbey with dramatic spires rising against the horizon on a bare beach is. In 1979, this place and the surrounding areas were declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. Apart from the abbey itself, there are a lot of cultural spots and places of architectural importance to be explored here. Among many of them, is the famous omelette restaurant, <a href=\"https:\/\/lamerepoulard.com\/en\/home2\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">La M\u00e9re Poulard<\/a>, established in 1879, and also known for it&#8217;s wall of autographs ( Ernest Hemingway among them!).

It marked a significant shift from the gloom of medieval architecture with its celebration of colour to commemorate the glory of Jesus Christ. There isn&#8217;t a single inch of space inside and outside the building that is not a detailed work of art. It&#8217;s warm and cozy on the inside, and perfect way to conclude an evening out in Paris.

Paris and its suburbs are divided into 6 zones.<\/p>\n<p>For tourists, Zones 1 and 2 are the most important as they cover the city center and all M\u00e9tro lines. RATP tickets and passes are valid on the M\u00e9tro, tram, buses and RER. The M\u00e9tro alone is very efficient and will take you anywhere you need to go within Paris city limits, and sometimes slightly beyond. Buses are less reliable but still offer a good service.<\/p>\n<h2>Paris in January: Must-try delicacies<\/h2>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/tourlandish\/blog-content\/image\/ad5afc681ac86b1164490a0cdad7878e-31486052403_9249a8fe5d_c.jpg?ixlib=rb-0.3.5&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjEyMDd9&amp;s=cc1080b2c97301bbd83d70d0ebbdce45&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=658&amp;q=10\" alt=\"paris in january\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"2219576820\" onload=\"pagespeed.CriticalImages.checkImageForCriticality(this);\"> <span>Galette des rois<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Galette des Rois is a frangipani tart made of butter, pastry and ground almonds.
